Sea Cucumber

Early this spring my wife, Pat, and I purchased our fishing licenses, expecting that we would be going fishing this summer. It has been a busy and cool summer and we just have not got around to it yet. Maybe tomorrow when we go up North to drop something off at our son’s and his family, we will go finishing at a nearby lake. I told a friend who is house bound that we are going fishing and she said that was great and to bring her back some fish. I had to admit to her we are the kind of fishermen that go fishing and do not catch fish.

Now giving out cucumbers I can do. After many years of failure to grow cucumbers in the backyard I planted one plant in the front yard garden along with the tomatoes, peppers, basil and eggplants, all sun loving and water plants. It is growing and delivering many cucumbers to our surprise, not one we expected.

Life is often like fishing and cucumbers. Often we do not do what we expect but end up with something unexpected. Life sometimes delivers cucumbers instead of fish.
